They don't fix any problems, they make them worse, and then drill a well for it all to go south in. Have probably mentioned it before but cotton, stuff a little wad of cotton in the well, way easier than cleaning, in and out.

That's true.

The system really works and I really got it after reading through the smoking pipes how to smoke a system pipe article. I would only buy a P-lip if it was a system pipe because that is the only time I like to use them.

If you don’t mind Lakeland ghosted pipes i’ll send you the pipe to try it out. Its yours. I tried to rid the ghost, there is some still there. It is a 317 which is the smallest shape in the system series.
@Piping Abe i really appreciate it, but ive already started setting aside some dollars and saw one that caught my eye something serious! thank you very much though thats one hell of an offer!
